I have never lived in the USA, but from visiting there and observing prices, I think that Canada is probably cheaper. It really depends on what part of the country(s) you want to live in. For instance, there seems to be lots of aviation work in and around Los Angeles and San Francisco, California, but it is incredibly expensive to live there. There are other places in the States that would be much cheaper to live, but is there work???
I feel that a much more important factor to consider is "quality of life" where you are planning to live. For that, I think Canada wins hands down. The reason I say this is that we have far, far less violent crime here. And the reason for that is the gun control laws. There are very few people carrying handguns here, where in the States you can safely assume that nearly everyone around you is armed!
You know, there are pros and cons to everything in life. There is probably more opportunity in the States than in Canada. If you search the on-line recruiters, you will see that there is LOTS of work down south. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.
